He's gonna get robbed if he doesn't stop the auction now, up the price, place a healthy reserve and re-list it as a Pre-A.

he has 9 days left. plenty of time for price to escalate.

30 minutes for my house too... hmmmmm ~

Why, oh, why, did this guy not sell that thing to me before I got all hooked up into this Madness?
Imagine the potential.

All it NEEDS is a couple carbs.

53829....it should be a 55 and the last of the Pre-A's it could even be a "Continental" Coupe.

I wish it was "out west" I would get serious.......;-)

Mine is number 53966 and is a genuine Continental, so that one is as well. Maybe I'll drop him a message tomorrow and let him know what he actually owns. Someone else probably already has I'll bet.

The number of intact interior details, right down to the gauge eye brows is staggering. I can count the dollars in thousands just looking through the pics.

Maybe a scammer?

Wait a bit TC, since this deal is just a half hour down the road from me, I am waiting on a reply for negotiations, I may have to empty the cookie jar, the sock draw and then some... Title address is a good one for Hagerstown MD. ~Alan

Oooopppsss . . .

Forget it, I'm not emailing anyone and not about to, ever ! !

Sorry, I didn't realize that you were serious about it. I'll totally shut up ! ! !

Hope that you buy it, it would be cool if you owned that car.

Alan - some inspirational pictures for ya.

its goooooone, Alan, fess up did you snag this!!!!!!

Regretfully, I never heard back from the seller and was ready to go and get the car today ... ~Alan

I'm thinkin somebody has a BIG broken piggy bank!

Crap ! ! !

I was SO looking forward to your getting it . . . maybe you could just drop by his house?

Is it true it sold for $800 as listed?

Check bid history - it got yo %15,100 before seller cancelled the ad.

Every time it loaded it got transferred to private sale and I looked at it on "completed listings. That's where I saw the $800 sale. I guess $15000 was still a good deal tho.

The $15,000 is a spectacular and rare price for a COMPLETE Pre-A and a Continental to boot.

Adam often has cars in the lower price range that would cost a fortune to restore, but would make KILLER Outlaws for fairly short money. Gotta know how to weld, but no need to use Porsche sheet metal. Cut and fit your own, pull and sell the original 356 stuff, use aftermarket or 914 replacement pieces, early Beetle aftermarket front suspension parts, and a big built VW engine and trans.

End up with a nifty 356 Outlaw coupe on a tight budget.

I just love the patina on this one.
